10 Days Left



So much change. First I just wanted to say thank you to everyone who wrote me. I LOVED THEM SO MUCH! Thank you Betty for telling me that I'm always in your prayers and that you had a little relief society at your house.  It was really sweet to hear about the things you’re doing! Thank you Emily for writing. I loved hearing about Tyler and Mikey growing up! It’s going too fast! I'm glad you’re moving in nicely and Kansas is doing you well. Also thank you grandma and grandpa for writting me too. Grandparents don’t forget to go to church continually as well as study the gospel it’s the most important thing you will ever do and have in your life. Love you lots.

          I'm senior companion now.  It’s not that different.  I just take the initiative with planning in the companionship.

                   After lunch we usually have class. I always fall asleep. It’s because my stomach is digesting and the teacher just keeps talking. Yes, I honestly cannot help falling asleep.

          Speaking of falling asleep, our Sisters that were going to Canada left last Monday morning at 4:45 am so they were up till 11:30 and then woke up at 3:30 to get ready to leave. It was hard to sleep. I woke up every 30 minutes to them not so subtly packing the last of their things. So after they left it was just my comp and I.  It was awesome! The room was clean AND we were able to finally turn off lights at 10:30. Before my comp and I just went to bed with everyone still talking and getting ready for bed. So it was nice! But I’ll miss them! We had all of Tuesday and the night to ourselves until the next transfer on Wednesday. Now we have three new Soeurs.  They’re sweet and we made sure we set the rules for them about keeping the dorm room clean. It’s going well so far.

           On Sunday, my comp and I watched  this recording of a talk given by Elder Holland. It’s called Open Your Mouth. It was awesome. As always.  Some points from it…

*Make your own personal conviction and keep with that forever.

*BE FIRM

*BE PERSISTENT

*Ephisians 6: 11-19

*Your success is measured on how much you open your mouth.

*DONT KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT!

I Love, love, love, love Elder Holland. Watching that recording was sure proof that Elder Holland can, 1. Play hard 2. Don’t mess with him and 3. He’s hilarious. He and Elder Bednar are the best.

           I GOT MY TRAVEL PLANS TODAY!! I fly out Monday the 14th at 4:55pm but I leave the MTC at 11:50am. Soeur Bennett is the Travel Leader. It fits her because she’s like the mom of the group. I guess that makes me co-captain.

           Temple this morning was awesome!!! We did initiatory and then went and spent time in the sealing room for an hour.  No one was in the room and we could feel the spirit so well.  Then we ate breakfast.  This time we went a little earlier so there was no line and we got what we wanted and were able to take our time.  Afterwards, we went to the temple laundry room and helped fold things. We left 2 hours earlier than last time. It was nice and peaceful with no interruptions and with no one baffling you.

           So yeah! It hasn’t been such a supper crazy week.  It’s really chill and it’s the same thing over and over.  Love you all so much and thank you for everything you do to make my life better.

Love
